Yes. I was in a diner and asked if any chocolate pudding was available. My waiter scrunched up his face and said he wouldn’t recommend any of the puddings.

A few days before, he continued, he had removed some rice pudding from the refrigerated dessert case as it had sat there too long and was moldy. In fact, he added, that wasn’t an unusual event for any of the diner’s food.

Guess how hungry I was after hearing that. I had about half of my dinner left in front of me, but I couldn’t finish it, nor did I take it home. Nor have I returned to that diner.

P.S. The diner has since closed.
